That's a great interview. You thought of some really good questions.  Thanks a lot!

And....did they really call you?!

Awesome interview! That was a really good read, and great answers too!

It's interesting to know they are jamming with Mike Dillard to know, I'm really curious how it sounds. I believe in one of the last interviews Buzz he mentioned he was 'trying' to play with him again, but apparently it worked out.

I dont think I've ever heard about Fantomas playing an improvized set, that's the complete opposite of what they are about.

I wonder what that other cd is gonna be like that includes 'a whole bunch of other stuff!'.

And yes, I want to be a Melvins subscriber! Funny to notice you got some questions from here, that's cool! :D And it's nice to know Buzzo sometimes talks to Kevin, whatever that means, it's just nice to know.

Once again, great job.

great job rok.  one of the most relaxed interviews I've ever read with buzz osborne.   he seems to have taken a liking to you.   you did a great job of getting him to open up and speak freely.    most interviews I read with him he cops a sarcastic attitude but he really seemed to be enjoying the conversation with you.
very well done and also very informative.

thanx!!!

It could be one for the future! Just like I pay every month for my water, gas and electricity, I could pay a monthy sum for my Melvins knickknacks, that'll keep those boys productive! :D

how have you contacted buzz for the interview?

i used the official way and contacted the press department of the festival. it worked out pretty well, but i will write an article for an austrian magazine about the melvins - so that was the official reason that made it a lot easier.

Great Interview!

I`m curious if there is any video/recorded footage of the Melvins playing with the Lennons. That could be interesting...

YES!

"We start touring the States on 15th of July."

"Then we do four or five shows in California."

There is no other band like them. Buzz is a very approachable fellow.

Whats also coincidental in the interview is that Buzz mentioned Bootsy Collins. Way back when, a thread was created here about who their next bass player would be when Kevin was booted. I think either I or Anaconda mentioned Bootsy Collins.
